This crossing has
quite an interesting history!
Satellite view from 2011 shows this used to actually be a county road
that went though town! However in 2013, a new bridge was built to go
around the town and have the road grade seperated from the mainline.
For some reason, this crossing still remains almost unchanged and still
functional!
